Bits & Pieces

Much-loved indie pop band Allo Darlin' have put together a collection of rarities, including some previously unreleased material, in conjunction with RSD 2026. Tracks include non-album singles "Henry Rollins Don't Dance" and "Hymn on the 45", both of which sold out immediately on their initial release, as well as the live classic "Darren". The compilation also includes covers of songs by the Go Betweens, Eux Autres, Just Joans as well as Jonathan Richman's "Parties in the USA", a collaboration with the Wave Pictures' David Tattersall. An alternative version of the classic Allo Darlin' song "Dreaming", taken from the recording sessions of their debut album, as well as some wonderful b-sides, The Best I Can and Dear John, are further proof of the great depth and quality of their back catalogue
